Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Thomas A. M. Mutonono was born in Mbare, formerly Harare, before Zimbabwe’s independence. He grew up in Mbare and had his education there. He was interested in reading and writing so much that, in 1969, he began to write short stories in ChiShona, one of the local languages in Zimbabwe, and in English. Despite a number of rejections from publishers, Thomas persisted with his writing, and eventually saw some short stories being published in some magazines in the 1970’s and The Sunday Mail, the main weekly newspaper, in the early 1980’s. In 2001 Thomas moved to UK and in 2010 his first book of short stories, A Means to Survive was published by Lion Press Limited. Crossroads is his second book portraying the life of Zimbabweans trying to cope with the reality of the new life after Independence from White settler rule. Thomas lives in the Bedfordshire town of Luton. He is now working on a new novel
